Series 2 of 3 · Book + workbook

Learn the why. Practice the how.

Engaging Scripture Well is a book and a workbook made to be used together, and you get both. The book walks through the ENGAGE Method one step at a time, with a full chapter for each letter, so you understand why each step matters. The workbook puts it into practice: a guided, write-in space that walks one passage of your choosing through all six steps, with seven worked examples across every major biblical genre.

Releasing together in Spring 2027. Waitlist members get launch pricing.

The Engaging Scripture Well workbook cover

How they work together

Two pieces. One method.

Each chapter of the book lines up with a step in the workbook. Read the why, then practice the how.

The book

Understand each step

A full chapter for each letter of ENGAGE, written by Joshua and Lauren together. It gives you the reasoning behind every step, teaching you how to study Scripture, not what to conclude, so you can test what you hear against the Bible itself.

  • A chapter for every step, from Examine to Explain
  • The why behind each step, not just the instructions
  • Written to stand alongside your church and help you walk someone else through Scripture

The workbook

Practice each step

A guided, write-in workbook that carries one passage you choose through all six steps, one step per page, with worked examples to show you the way and tools to keep going long after the last page.

  • One passage carried through all six ENGAGE steps
  • Seven worked examples, one for every major biblical genre
  • Five application lenses, Scripture for everyday issues, and a plan you'll keep

Inside the workbook

Substantial but approachable.

Designed so you finish it, and finish it changed.

  • A heart-check to start honest

    Name your current pattern with Scripture, and what you want God to form in you, before page one asks anything else of you.

  • The method, on one spread

    All six ENGAGE steps explained simply, with the reminder that this is a practice, not a performance.

  • One passage, six movements

    Pages 5–10 carry a single passage you choose through every step: examine, name, gather, assess, go, explain.

  • Five application lenses

    Mind, heart, hands, relationships, witness, so 'apply it' stops being vague and starts being specific.

  • Seven worked examples

    Ruth, Psalm 13, Proverbs 3, Micah 6, Mark 2, Colossians 3, Revelation 21: one faithful walkthrough for every major genre.

  • Scripture for everyday issues

    Guided starting points, so you're never handed a method and left wondering where to begin.

  • ENGAGE notes pages

    Journal pages for your next passes, because the method is meant to outlive the workbook.

  • My Scripture Engagement Plan

    A sustainable rhythm: when, where, what you'll read, who walks with you, and six commitments worth keeping.
